If you remove flight deck & ATC errors, the root cause is SFO will not expand its runways into the bay. SFO has/is spending billions on runway repaving, new ATC tower, major terminal renovations, a hotel and long-term parking garage. But this will not resolve the congestion as traffic increases and IFR conditions are becoming the norm. Maybe they should take some lessons from Japan's Kansai International Airport (KIX).

Planes are crowded enough. If you can't fit into one seat, buy another. Now if they make people bathe before boarding. I'll sure the TSA "Sniffer" can detect BO as well as explosives.

Allow WiFi, but ban cell phone conversations. WiFi would be a great revenue maker for the airlines.
